Mixology bonus is +15, for a total of 105 resistance.

A great elixir. As a Cataclysm tank, 300 stamina is pittance. You should prefer taking this elixir and Elixir of the Master. On certain fights, you may replace this elixir with Elixir of Deep Earth, but in general, this one is prefered. Reducing magic damage is usually reducing spike damage the boss throws out periodically, while armor tends to mostly reduce the constant damage you're slowly taking over the whole encounter, and a spike of damage is more likely to kill you. (YMMV if your healers are running out of mana)

This potion looks quite useful in firelands for players who can't seem to stay out of fires.

I'm going to make a ton of this SPECIFICALLY for Al'Akir...that nasty, nature dmg loving biotch.

For those of us who don't carry a pocket druid or paladin during our travels, the Drums of Forgotten Kings makes a nice compliment to this for an additional +4% to all stats and +52 to all resistances. At 50 charges/drum it's well worth picking up if you're looking to solo something difficult.

This item is way better than Flask of Steelskin on several DS (HM) encounters like Yor'sahj, Zon'ozz, Ultraxion, Spine and Madness of deathwing.With 195 base magic resistance, it provides a permanent +8% magic damage reduction (it stacks with everything), which is really nice. Don't forget that you can use a battle elixir like Elixir of the Master simultaneously.

It's underrated, as well as Mirror of Broken Images which provides nearly +26% more magic damage reduction during 10 sec, with a short cooldown (1 min).

Still gives resistances as of 5.0.4 even though you can't see them. And as far as I know besides older gear this is only way to get +resists now.
